Not a Goalkeeping Win per say, but a HUGE win for our club and local grassroots π―π
Next season our club takes it's first steps into youth football, expanding from our adults team to field x2 under 12 sides and an under 9s team in 2026/27.
We are wanting to carry the ethics of our club into junior grassroots:
- Community
- Togetherness
- Resilience
- Honour
Our Adults team has built itself around the above and it's a gift to have a group like them π
I have been searching for months for the perfect ground which our club can use as a foundation for the start of our youth football journey. And it's been nothing short of a mammoth task at times, it seemed for the most part that it was truly a needle in a haystack situation!
Tonight I met with the league committee and presented our plans for some disused football fields which are slowly being lost and forgotten.
With some great support from local councillors and MPs supporting our project we have managed to secure our first home ground for our new youth teams and project!!!!!!!πππππ
Not specifically a goalkeeping win, but it's such a win for our players and the future of our clubππ―ππ
It may not look like much now, but we now have a foundation to work from and we are really excited to start this next chapter and help revive some pitches which can be brought back in use for the local community and our players βΊοΈ
I hope everyone had a great weekend! π―
